In 1961, Your mother Holt married bank manager Gilbert LaPiere, who adopted Cher (under the name Cheryl LaPiere) and Georganne, and enrolled them at Montclair College Preparatory School, a private school in Encino, whose students were mostly from affluent families. The school's upper-class environment presented a challenge for Cher; biographer Connie Berman wrote, "[she] stood out from the others in both her striking appearance and outgoing personality." A former classmate commented, "I'll never forget seeing Cher for the first time. She was so special ... She was like a movie star, right then and there ... She said she was going to be a movie star and we knew she would." Despite not being an excellent student, Cher was intelligent and creative, according to Berman. She earned high grades, excelling in French and English classes. As an adult, she discovered that she had dyslexia. Cher's unconventional behavior stood out: she performed songs for students during the lunch hours and surprised peers when she wore a midriff-baring top.She later recalled, "I was never really in school. I was always thinking about when I was grown up and famous.

Actor, film director, film producer and musician Keanu Charles Reeves (Keanu Charles Reeves),πŸ₯°
Missed the first 20 minutes of the party dedicated to the end of filming of his new film in one of the clubs in New York.
He waited patiently in the rain to be let in. No one recognized him.
The club owner said: "I didn't even know Keanu was standing in the rain waiting to be let in - he didn't say anything to anyone." "He travels by public transport". "He easily communicates with homeless people on the street and helps them".
- He is only 61 years old (September 2, 1964) - He can just eat a hot dog in the park, sitting between ordinary people.
- After filming one of the "Matrix", he gave all the stuntmen a new motorcycle - in recognition of their skill.
- He gave up most of the fee for the salaries of costume designers and computer scientists who draw special effects in "The Matrix" - decided that their share of participation in the budget of the film was underestimated.
- He reduced his fee in the film The Devil's Advocate" to have enough money to invite Al Pacino.
- Almost at the same time his best friend died; his girlfriend lost a child and soon died in a car accident, and his sister fell ill with leukemia.
Keanu did not break: he donated $5 million to the clinic that treated his sister, refused to shoot (to be with her), and created the Leukemia Foundation, donating significant sums from each fee for the film. You can be born a man, but to remain one..

Rest in Peace, π†π‘π€π‡π€πŒ 𝐆𝐑𝐄𝐄𝐍𝐄.
Born June 22, 1952, on the Six Nations Reserve in Ohsweken, Ontario, Canada, Greene was a proud member of the Oneida Nation, part of the Haudenosaunee (Six Nations). Before entering Hollywood, he worked as a welder, carpenter, and high-steelworkerβ€”an everyday life he never imagined would lead him to stand among the finest actors on screen.
His breakthrough came with Dances With Wolves (1990), where he portrayed Kicking Bird, a Lakota medicine man. The role earned him an Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actor, marking a milestone not just for Greene’s career, but for Indigenous representation in film. Determined to honor the role, he spent hours learning the Lakota language to bring authenticity to the character.
But his performance was more than actingβ€”it was a reclamation. Greene once reflected, β€œI don’t even speak my own language… We were taught not to speak it. It’s like forgetting your heart.” Through his work, he gave that heart a voice again.
Graham Greene passed away in 2025 at age 73, leaving behind a legacy defined by pride, authenticity, and quiet dignity. He showed the world that true strength isn’t loudβ€”it’s the kind that stands tall, even when the world tries to silence you.

The Path Beneath Us

Walk gently,
my child.

The earth listens
to small feet.

The white buffalo
follows not behind,
but besideβ€”
as all who love you will.

Strength is not in command,
but in care.

Hold the braid,
hold the breath,
hold the line
between past and becoming.

Rememberβ€”
we are not owners of this life,
only its keepers,
for a time.

For Native Americans, these words echo across centuries of struggle. Freedom was never given β€” it was fought for, preserved, and remembered through resistance, ceremony, and survival.
From the Trail of Tears to Wounded Knee, from the suppression of languages to the forced removal of children into boarding schools, Indigenous people learned one painful truth: justice rarely came from the conscience of those in power. It came from the courage of those who refused to be erased.
The Lakota at Standing Rock, the Apache in their mountain strongholds, the Cherokee on the long march west β€” none waited for moral awakening from their oppressors. They fought in their own way: through prayer, through endurance, through protecting the land even when the world turned its back.
Assata Shakur’s words remind us that freedom is not granted by permission. It is reclaimed through resistance β€” by remembering who we are, speaking our language again, singing the old songs, and standing together when the world says to kneel.
To be Native in America has always meant more than surviving.
It means carrying the fire of those who refused to surrender β€” and keeping it burning for the generations yet to come.
